Okay, the moment of truth for this newbie has arrived: my first posting of photos. Be gentle.   In a thread on "Totally Rock Tumbling," it was mentioned that tiger eye sometimes does not tumble well. Here are some results from a mixed batch in my Lortone 33A. It is very hard to get the iridescence to show up in a photo, but at least there is some sense of their shine.  |

Tiger eye is a difficult stone to tumble, alot of times they will turn white on the edges if you're not careful. Looks like you nailed this one, great job  |

Excellent tumbles...but are these the only finished pieces you got out of the 33b? cause I have tried tumbling tiger eye with other agates, and I'm not getting good results.
